WEEEEEEEEEEEZER - DEATH TO FALSE METAL
#'S PICTURED ARE IN STOCK. I WILL SHIP LOWEST # FIRST. THANKS!!!

Death To False Metal is not a traditional collection of studio leftovers or songs from the vault, but a wholly original follow-up to Weezer's just-released Hurley. The album was created using the basic tracks of 10 previously unreleased recordings—nine never-before-heard songs plus one cover—to assemble a brand new and truly modern-sounding record. The result is an evolution for the band, a giant step forward with a nod to the past.

"These were great songs, great recordings, but for some reason they didn't make the final cut for previous records," Weezer frontman Rivers Cuomo stated. "Some just weren't right for the albums we were recording at the time—just a bit ahead of their time or too 'rock.' Now, the time is right to introduce them. Together, they are the album that should logically follow Hurley."

Featuring tracks the band originally began recording from the late '90s to late '00s, Death To False Metal was a labor of love for Cuomo and his co-producer Shawn Everett, as well as the entire band. Each track was individually evaluated by the production team of Cuomo and Everett to figure out how to make each of the songs reach their full potential, and ultimately fit harmoniously on the album. After that process, they then brought in each band member in to complete the parts needed. Some of the ten songs received a major overhaul, while others got the equivalent of a sonic tune-up.

"Turning Up The Radio" is the result of Cuomo's 2008 collaborative YouTube project, "Let's Write A Sawng," for which he invited fans to submit ideas. As they went through the steps of composing a tune, eventually, 15 people became involved. This track is one of only two songs not solely penned by Weezer for Death To False Metal.

"Blowin' My Stack," "Losing My Mind" (which features some of the most raw and personal emotions in a Weezer song), "I'm A Robot," and a rock cover of the massive R&B hit "Un-Break My Heart" were all first recorded prior to the release of 2005's Make Believe. "I Don't Want Your Loving" was originally laid down as a demo for 2002's Maladroit. The abrasive punk-metal "Everyone" hails from post-1998 Pinkerton period, as does the pop song "Trampoline." The piano-based "Odd Couple" and new-wave-style "Auto-Pilot" were laid down prior to 2008's Weezer (aka "The Red Album").

The title Death To False Metal comes from a phrase that Cuomo and his younger brother used when they were kids. Musical integrity was a matter of life or death then, and now the new album is a reminder of how important music is for both Weezer and their many fans. At a time when many of their contemporaries seem to have forgotten how to rock, Weezer is ready to teach them. Cuomo and fellow axe-slinger Brian Bell crafted nine epic guitar solos—one for nearly every song on Death To False Metal—and with the band's signature hooks in full effect, Weezer's school of rock is back in session.

There are many options when it comes to shopping for vinyl records, and we want everyone to know why you 

should shop with us. 

PACKAGING

We try our best to secure each record that leaves our hands, to arrive in the same condition to its new owner. Each record is 

wrapped tightly in A-fluted corrugated cardboard paper, which not only is more environmentally sound than bubble wrap, 

but offers more padding and protection for your records. It helps the vinyl fit more snug in the mailer, allowing NO ROOM 

for any shifting. Which in turn, helps prevent seam splits, bends and pushes. We reuse every box that comes through our

doors and put them to good use. We personally cut 1” corner pieces from the recycled boxes to reinforce the corners on 

the outside of the record mailers. This is to assist in the protection of your vinyl in transit, as we know USPS isn’t widely 

known for handling so delicately at all times. We ship records that are in open and resealable poly sleeves outside of the jacket

 to prevent seam splits. If you purchase a sealed copy and would like us to open, and ship outside of the jacket, we will place

it in an open poly sleeve upon request.  Please read some of our positive feedbacks on packaging to confirm our methods accuracy. 

We find our customers happy with the care that is considered when wrapping their records, and they keep coming back for more!

If more than 2 LPs are purchased, we upgrade your package to a bigger box to accommodate the size and weight. If you wish 

to receive your vinyl in a more timely manner, please contact us to setup for priority. For Priority shipping, it is calculated
